BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention

2. Description of the Related Art

Nowadays, a display apparatus utilizes as a light source a light-emitting device package including a light-emitting device such as a light-emitting diode (LED) and at least one phosphor. Conventional phosphors used in light-emitting device packages have a problem due to emitted spectrums being wider than wavelength bands corresponding to colors of light intended to be emitted. As a result of the phosphors emitting light spectrums wider than desired, the light emitted by the phosphors is impure. The light emitted by the phosphors is a mixture including undesired colors. Color reproduction capability of the display apparatus employing as the light source the light-emitting device package of related art is degraded due to the decrease of the gamut of pure colors of emitted light.

Each of these terminologies is not used to define an essence, order or sequence of a corresponding component but used merely to distinguish the corresponding component from other component(s). In the case that it is described that a certain structural element “is connected to”, “is coupled to”, or “is in contact with” another structural element, it should be interpreted that another structural element may “be connected to”, “be coupled to”, or “be in contact with” the structural elements as well as that the certain structural element is directly connected to or is in direct contact with another structural element.

FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure according to some embodiments of the present invention and FIG. 2 is a view showing light transmission properties of the shell (PS) in a phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure according to some embodiments of the present invention.

With reference to FIG. 1, the phosphor (P) according to some embodiments of the present invention has a core-shell structure composed of a core (PC) including a phosphorescent material, and at least one shell (PS) wrapping the core (PC).

The core (PC) of the phosphor (P) includes a phosphorescent material that absorbs first pure-color light of a first pure-color wavelength band and emits the light of a wavelength band different from the first pure color wavelength band. As used herein, the expression “two wavelength bands are different from each other” is intended to encompass both a case where two wavelength bands do not overlap each other at all and a case where two wavelength bands overlap each other in part.

At least one shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) is applied to the surface of the core (PC) and can emit second pure-color light of a second pure-color wavelength band by eliminating the light of a specific wavelength band or attenuating the intensity of the light of a specific wavelength band from the light of wavelength bands emitted from the core (PC).

The shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) includes a material having the light transmission property of attenuating the intensity of the light of a specific wavelength band (e.g., B-G mixed color wavelength band or G-R mixed color wavelength band) to less than a threshold intensity and outputting the attenuated light after the incidence of light.

Next, FIG. 2 is a graph showing light transmission properties of the shell (PS) of the phosphor (P), in which when light with intensity Sin is incident on the shell (PS), the intensity Sout of the light (e.g., output light) emitted from the shell (PS) is depicted depending on the wavelengths of the incident light.

When incident light with wavelengths outside of a specific wavelength band (Wc) is irradiated to the shell (PS), the intensity Sout of the light emitted from the shell (PS) may be lowered below the intensity Sin of the incident light by normal attenuation, but still stays higher than a threshold intensity Sth.

After light with wavelengths outside of a specific wavelength band (Wc) is incident on the shell (PS), the light intensity attenuation (Sin-Sout) in the shell (PS) may remain less than a certain level (K). When light with a wavelength inside of a specific wavelength band (Wc) is incident on the shell (PS), the intensity Sout of the light emitted from the shell (PS) is lowered below a threshold intensity Sth as well as the intensity Sin of the incident light.

After light with wavelengths inside of a specific wavelength band (Wc) is incident on the shell (PS), the light intensity attenuation (Sin-Sout) in the shell (PS) may be a certain level (K) or greater. The shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) attenuates the intensity of the light of a specific wavelength band (Wc) or removes the light of a specific wavelength band (Wc) by absorbing the light of the specific wavelength band (Wc).

The first pure-color light absorbed by the core (PC) of the phosphor (P) may be pure blue light. The second pure-color light emitted from the shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) may be pure green or red light.

In the case where the core (PC) of the phosphor (P) absorbs pure blue light and the shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) emits pure green light by controlling a mixed color range of green and red lights, corresponding wavelength properties are associated with the phosphor (P). The first pure-color wavelength band of the light absorbed by the core (PC) of the phosphor (P) is a wavelength band of pure blue light (hereinafter blue wavelength band), covering a range of approximately 380-500 nm.

The wavelength band of the light that the core (PC) of the phosphor (P) emits may include a wavelength band of pure green light (hereinafter green wavelength band) that is approximately 500-550 nm, and may include a wavelength band of green and red color-mixed light (hereinafter G-R mixed color wavelength band) that is approximately 550-600 nm and ranges from approximately 500-600 nm. 500 to 600 nm. The specific wavelength band eliminated or attenuated by the shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) may be the G-R mixed color wavelength band and may range from approximately 550 to 600 nm.

The second pure-color wavelength band of the light emitted from the shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) may be a green wavelength band ranging from approximately 500-550 nm.

In the case where the core (PC) of the phosphor (P) absorbs pure blue light and the shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) emits pure red light by controlling a mixed color range of green and red lights, wavelength properties associated with the phosphor (P) are as follows.

The first pure-color wavelength band of the light absorbed by the core (PC) of the phosphor (P) is a blue wavelength band, covering a range of approximately 380-500 nm.

The wavelength band of the light that the core (PC) of the phosphor (P) emits may include a wavelength band of pure red light (hereinafter red wavelength band) which is approximately 600-700 nm, and may include a G-R mixed color wavelength band which is approximately 550-600 nm and ranges from approximately 550-700 nm.

Meanwhile, the specific wavelength band eliminated or attenuated by the shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) may be the G-R mixed color wavelength band and may range from approximately 550-600 nm.

The second pure-color wavelength band of the light emitted from the shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) may be a red wavelength band ranging from approximately 600-700 nm.

In the case where the core (PC) of the phosphor (P) absorbs pure blue light and the shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) emits pure green light by controlling a mixed color range of green and red lights, wavelength properties associated with the phosphor (P) are as follows.

The first pure-color wavelength band of the light absorbed by the core (PC) of the phosphor (P) is a wavelength band of pure blue light (hereinafter referred to as “blue wavelength band”), covering a range of approximately 380-500 nm.

The wavelength band of the light that the core (PC) of the phosphor (P) emits may include a wavelength band of pure green light (hereinafter referred to as “green wavelength band”, approximately 500-550 nm) and a wavelength band of green and blue color-mixed light (hereinafter referred to as “B-G mixed color wavelength band”, approximately 480-500 nm), ranging from approximately 480-550 nm.

Meanwhile, the specific wavelength band eliminated or attenuated by the shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) may be the B-G mixed color wavelength band and may range from approximately 480-500 nm.

The second pure-color wavelength band of the light emitted from the shell (PS) of the phosphor (P) may be a green wavelength band ranging from approximately 500-550 nm.

The phosphor (P) having the core-shell structure with the core (PC) that may be heavier than the shell (PS) can emit the pure-color light of a pure wavelength band. For example, the weight ratio of the shell (PS) to the core (PC) in the phosphor (P) may be 0.6 or less. The weight of the shell (PS) may be set to be 0.6 or less when the weight of the core (PC) is 1.

The phosphor (P) according to the present invention solves a problem of the phosphor (P) according to related art. The problem of the phosphor (P) according to related art, when the weight ratio of the shell (PS) to the core (PC) in the phosphor (P) is more than 0.6, the plausibility that the shell (PS) emits purer color light is increased. The light emitted from the core (PC) in the phosphor (P) according to related art may penetrate at low efficiency through the shell (PS), resulting in greatly degrading luminance performance.

The phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure according to the present invention with a shell (PS)-to-core (PC) weight ratio of 0.6 or less may allow for the emission of pure color light without degrading luminance performance. In other words, by providing the phosphor (P) with the shell (PS)-to-core (PC) weight ratio of 0.6 or less, the present invention avoids the degrading luminance performance of the phosphor (P) according to related art.

In the phosphor (P) of the present invention having a core-shell structure, the thickness (T) of the shell (PS) may be smaller than the distance (R) from the center (O) of the core (PC) to the surface of the core (PC). For example, the shell (PS), which may range in thickness from 1 nm to 500 μm, may have a thickness of from 2,000 nm-500,000 nm.

Next, FIG. 3 shows various forms of the phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure according to some embodiments of the present invention. A cross section of the phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure according to some embodiments of the present invention may be circular as in the 1st case, polygonal (e.g., triangular, rectangular, and pentagonal) as in the 2nd case, or amorphous as in the 3rd case.

In addition, the phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure according to some embodiments of the present invention may have various cross sectional forms.

From a three-dimensional view point, the phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure according to some embodiments of the present invention may be a sphere, a polyhedron, or an unspecified structure.

The phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure according to some embodiments of the present invention may find applications in an electronic apparatus 400 comprising a light-emitting device package 410 including at least one light-emitting device, and a driving circuit 420 for driving the at least one light emitting device of the light-emitting device package 410.

The light emitting device included in the light-emitting device package 410 utilizing the phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure according to some embodiments of the present invention, may be, for example, an LED (light emitting diode) chip. The light-emitting device package 410 can include at least one of one or more phosphors which can be, for example, the phosphor (P) having the core-shell structure according to the present invention. A color filter in a display panel of a display apparatus can include a phosphor (P) that has the core-shell structure according to the present invention to enhance the color conversion performance of the color filter, the phosphor (P) positioned being above or below the color filter.

Next, FIG. 5 is a view illustrates three types (e.g., Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3) of a light emitting device packages each utilizing a phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure according to some embodiments of the present invention. The light-emitting device package 410 (refer to FIG. 4) may be of Type 1 inclusive of one kind of light emitting devices and two kinds of phosphors (refer to FIG. 5).

The light-emitting device package 410 of Type 1 includes, for example, the one kind of light emitting device that may be a blue light emitting device emitting blue light while the two kinds of phosphor may be composed of a red phosphor that emits red light and a green phosphor that emits green light.

The light-emitting device package 410 of Type 2 or Type 3 can include, for example, two kinds of light emitting devices and one kind of phosphor (refer to FIG. 5). For the light-emitting device package 410 of Type 2, for example, the two kinds of light emitting devices may be composed of a blue light emitting device that emits blue light and a red light emitting device that emits red light while the one kind of phosphor may be a green phosphor that emits green light. For the light-emitting device package 410 of Type 3, for example, the two kinds of light emitting devices may be composed of a blue light emitting device that emits blue light and a green light emitting device that emits green light while the one kind of phosphor may be a red phosphor that emits red light.

Next, FIGS. 6 and 7 are diagrams respectively illustrating, for example, Type 1-a of the three types of the light-emitting device package 410 (refer to FIGS. 6, 8, and 10). The light-emitting device package 410 of Type 1-a including one kind of light emitting devices (D1) and two kinds of phosphors (P1 and P2), each having a core-shell structure.

Referring to FIG. 6, the light-emitting device package 410 includes a mold 610, one or more first light emitting devices (D1) positioned on the mold 610, and an encapsulant 620 for encapsulating the first light emitting devices (D1). The mold 610 and the encapsulant 620 are structural elements common to all types of the light-emitting device package 410 (refer to FIG. 4). The encapsulant 620 includes a first phosphor (P1) and a second phosphor (P2).

In Type 1-a of the light-emitting device package 410, each of the first light emitting devices (D1) can emit light of a first main wavelength band within the visible light wavelength band. In Type 1-a of the light-emitting device package 410, the first phosphor (P1) and the second phosphor (P2) each have a core-shell structure.

The first phosphor (P1) may include a first core (PC1) which is composed of a fluorescent material emitting light of a first wavelength band different from the first main wavelength band of the light emitted from the first light emitting device (D1), and at least one first shell (PS1) which is applied to the surface of the first core (PC1). The at least one first shell (PS1) applied to the surface of the first core (PC1) eliminates the light of a first specific wavelength band or attenuates the intensity of the light of a first specific wavelength band in the light of a first wavelength band to emit light of a second main wavelength band within the visible light wavelength band.

For example, the first light emitting device (D1) may be a blue light emitting device emitting the first main wavelength band that may be a blue wavelength band of about 380-500 nm.

The first wavelength band of the light that the first core (PC1) of the first phosphor (P1) emits may include a green wavelength band that is about 500-550 nm and may include a G-R mixed color wavelength band, which is about 550-600 nm and ranges from about 500-600 nm.

The first specific wavelength band corresponding to the wavelength band of the light that is attenuated or eliminated by the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1) may be, for example, a G-R mixed color wavelength band that is about 550-600 nm.

The second main wavelength band corresponding to the wavelength band of the light that is finally emitted from the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1) may be a green wavelength band that is about 500-550 nm. In other words, the green wavelength band that is about 500-550 nm is emitted from the first phosphor (P1).

The first phosphor (P1) having a core-shell structure included in the light-emitting device package 410 of Type 1-a can emit pure color light of the second main wavelength band.

To emit pure color light of the second main wavelength band by the first phosphor (P1), the first shell (PS1) may be a material having a first light transmission property of attenuating the intensity of the light of a first specific wavelength band, corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed color light, in the first wavelength band of the light emitted from the first core (PC1). The intensity of the light of a first specific wavelength band is attenuated to less than a threshold intensity (Sth). The attenuated light is output by the first phosphor (P1) after the incidence of light, to emit pure color light of a second main wavelength band.

In the first phosphor (P1), the first core (PC1) may be heavier than the first shell (PS1). For example, the weight ratio of the first shell (PS1) to the first core (PC1) in the first phosphor (P1) may be 0.6 or less.

In the first phosphor (P1), the weight ratio of the first shell (PS1) to the first core (PC1) may be set in such a manner that the intensity attenuation of the light of a first specific wavelength band, corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed color light, in the first wavelength band of the light emitted from the first core (PC1) is a certain level (K) or greater. In other words, the weight ratio of the first shell (PS1) to the first core (PC1) in the first phosphor (P1) may be designed so that the first core (PC1) is heavier than the first shell (PS1) to emit pure color light without degrading luminance performance.

In the first phosphor (P1), the thickness of the first shell (PS1) may be smaller than the distance (R) from the center (O) of the first core (PC1) to the surface of the first core (PC1). For example, the first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) may range in thickness from 1 nm-500 μm. More particularly, the first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) has a thickness of from 2,000 nm-500,000 nm.

In the first phosphor (P1), the thickness of the first shell (PS1) may be determined such that the intensity attenuation of the light of a first specific wavelength band corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed light in the first wavelength band of the light emitted from the first core (PC1) is a certain level (K) or greater.

The first phosphor (P1) having a core-shell structure with the thickness of the first shell (PS1) being smaller than the distance (R) from the center (O) of the first core (PC1) to the surface of the first core (PC1) is allowed to emit pure color light without degrading luminance performance by designing the thickness of the first shell (PS1).

The first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) may include at least one rare earth element from the lanthanum group. As used herein, the term “rare earth elements from the lanthanum group” refers to seventeen elements including the fifteen lanthanides (atomic numbers 57-71) plus scandium (Sc) and yttrium (Y).

The fifteen lanthanides include La (lanthanum), Ce (cerium), Pr (praseodymium), Nd (neodymium), Pm (promethium), Sm (samarium), Eu (europium), Gd (gadolinium), Tb (terbium), Dy (dysprosium), Ho (holmium), Er (erbium), Tm (thulium), Yb (ytterbium), and Lu (lutetium).

As the first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) includes at least one rare earth element from the lanthanum group, as described above, the light transferred from the first core (PC1) of the first phosphor (P1) can be emitted outside the first shell without loss except the first specific wavelength band of the incident light.

In the first phosphor (P1), the first core (PC1) may include, for example, at least one selected from among (Sr,Ba,Mg)2SiO4:Eu, Al5Lu3O12:Ce, (Sr,Ba,Mg)2SiO4:Eu, Y3Al5O12:Ce, La3Si6N11:Ce, (Sr,Ba,Eu)2SiO4:Eu, β-Sialon:Si6-zAlzOzN8-z:Eu, Lu3Al5O12:Ce, (Lu, Gd)3Al5O12:Ce, and Y3Al5O12:Ce (0.01<z<10).

According to this material, the first core (PC1) of the first phosphor (P1) may absorb light of a blue wavelength band of about 380-500 nm corresponding to the first main wavelength band of the light emitted from the first light emitting device (D1) so as to emit light of a first wavelength band of about 500-600 nm including a green wavelength band of about 500-550 nm and a G-R mixed color wavelength band of about 550-600 nm.

With reference to FIGS. 6 and 7, the second phosphor (P2) may include a second core (PC2) which is composed of a fluorescent material emitting light of a second wavelength band different from the first main wavelength band of the light emitted from the first light emitting device (D1), and at least one second shell (PS2) (refer to FIGS. 6 and 7). The at least one second shell (PS2) is applied to the surface of the second core (PC2) and eliminates the light of a second specific wavelength band or attenuates the intensity of the light of a second specific wavelength band in the light of a second wavelength band to emit light of a third main wavelength band within the visible light wavelength band.

Having a core-shell structure with a second core (PC2) composed of a fluorescent material emitting light of a second wavelength band different from the first main wavelength band of the light emitted from the first light emitting device (D1), the second phosphor (P2) can emit the pure color light of a third main wavelength band different from both the first main wavelength band of the pure color light emitted form the first light emitting device (D1) and the second main wavelength band of the light emitted from the first phosphor (P1).

For example, the first light emitting device (D1) may be a blue light emitting device, and when the first main wavelength band is a blue wavelength band of about 380-500 nm, the second wavelength band of the light that the second core (PC2) of the second phosphor (P2) emits may include a red wavelength band of about 600-700 nm and a G-R mixed color wavelength band of about 550-600 nm, covering a range of about 550-700 nm.

The second specific wavelength band which corresponds to the wavelength band of the light attenuated or eliminated by the second shell (PS2) of the second phosphor (P2) may be, for example, a G-R mixed color wavelength band of about 550-600 nm.

The third main wavelength band which corresponds to the wavelength band of the light finally emitted from the second shell (PS2) of the second phosphor (P2), that is, from the second phosphor (P2), may be a red wavelength band of about 600-700 nm.

In the second phosphor (P2), the second shell (PS2) may be a material having a second light transmission property of attenuating the intensity of the light of a second specific wavelength band, corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed color light, in the second wavelength band of the light emitted from the second core (PC2) to less than a threshold intensity (Sth) and outputting the attenuated light after the incidence of light.

Accordingly, the second phosphor (P2) may emit pure color light of a third main wavelength band by reducing the intensity of the light of the second specific wavelength band corresponding to the mixed color wavelength band.

In the second phosphor (P2), the second core (PC2) may be heavier than the second shell (PS2).

For example, the weight ratio of the second shell (PS2) to the second core (PC2) in the second phosphor (P2) may be 0.6 or less.

In the second phosphor (P2), the weight ratio of the second shell (PS2) to the second core (PC2) may be set in such a manner that the intensity attenuation of the light of a second specific wavelength band, corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed color light, in the second wavelength band of the light emitted from the second core (PC2) is a certain level (K) or greater.

In a second phosphor (P2) having a core-shell structure, as mentioned above, a weight ratio of a second shell (PS2) to a second core (PC2) may be designed so as to emit pure color light without degrading luminance performance.

In the second phosphor (P2), the thickness of the second shell (PS2) may be smaller than the distance (R) from the center (O) of the second core (PC2) to the surface of the second core (PC2). For example, the second shell (PS2) in the second phosphor (P2) may range in thickness from 1 nm-500 μm.

More particularly, the second shell (PS2) in the second phosphor (P2) has a thickness of from 2,000 nm-500,000 nm.

In the second phosphor (P2), the thickness of the second shell (PS2) may be determined such that the intensity attenuation of the light of a second specific wavelength band corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed light in the second wavelength band of the light emitted from the second core (PC2) is a certain level (K) or greater.

The second phosphor (P2) having a core-shell structure with the thickness of the second shell (PS2) being smaller than the distance (R) from the center (O) of the second core (PC2) to the surface of the second core (PC2) is allowed to emit pure color light without degrading luminance performance by designing the thickness of the second shell (PS2).

The second shell (PS2) in the second phosphor (P2) may include at least one rare earth element from the lanthanum group. As used herein, the term “rare earth elements from the lanthanum group” refers to seventeen elements including the fifteen lanthanides (atomic numbers 57-71) plus scandium (Sc) and yttrium (Y).

The fifteen lanthanides include La (lanthanum), Ce (cerium), Pr (praseodymium), Nd (neodymium), Pm (promethium), Sm (samarium), Eu (europium), Gd (gadolinium), Tb (terbium), Dy (dysprosium), Ho (holmium), Er (erbium), Tm (thulium), Yb (ytterbium), and Lu (lutetium).

As the second shell (PS2) in the second phosphor (P2) includes at least one rare earth element from the lanthanum group, and as described above, the light transferred from the second core (PC2) of the second phosphor (P2) can be emitted outside the second shell without loss except the second specific wavelength band of the incident light.

In the second phosphor (P2), the second core (PC2) may include, for example, at least one selected from among (Sr,Ba,Mg)3SiO5:Eu, (Sr,Ca)AlSiN3:Eu, CaAlSiN3:Eu, MyM′z(Si,B,Al)5OxN8-x:Eu, MSil-zAlzOzN2-z:Eu, α-Sialon:CaxEuy(Si,Al)12(O,N)16, and S—CaAlSiN, CaAlSiN, (Sr,Ca)AlSiN3:Eu, K2SiF6:Mn4+ (0.01<x<10, 0.01<y<20, 0.01<z<10, M and M′ may each be selected from among Ca, Sr, and Ba).

According to this material, the second core (PC2) of the second phosphor (P2) may absorb light of a blue wavelength band of about 380-500 nm corresponding to the first main wavelength band of the light emitted from the first light emitting device (D1) so as to emit light of a second wavelength band of about 550-700 nm including a red wavelength band of about 600-700 nm and a G-R mixed color wavelength band of about 550-600 nm.

In the light-emitting device package 410 of Type 1-a, the first specific wavelength band, which is the wavelength band of the light eliminated or attenuated by the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1) may be identical to or overlap with the second specific wavelength band, which is the wavelength band of the light eliminated or attenuated by the second shell (PS2) of the second phosphor (P2).

In the light-emitting device package 410 of Type 1-a, if necessary, the first specific wavelength band, which is the wavelength band of the light eliminated or attenuated by the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1) may be different from the second specific wavelength band, which is the wavelength band of the light eliminated or attenuated by the second shell (PS2) of the second phosphor (P2), without overlap therebetween.

As indicated by the design for a wavelength band to be attenuated or eliminated, the light transmission properties in each of the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1) and the second shell (PS2) of the second phosphor (P2) can be controlled depending on the presence or absence of a B-G mixed color wavelength band between a blue wavelength band and a green wavelength band and a G-R mixed color wavelength band between a green wavelength band and a red wavelength band, and a degree of color mixing. Through the control, improvement can be made of entire color reproduction capability in the light-emitting device package 410.

The weight ratio of the first shell (PS1) to the first core (PC1) in the first phosphor (P1) may be identical to or different from that of the second shell (PS2) to the second core (PS2) in the second phosphor (P2).

As indicated by the aforementioned design for the weight ratio, the light transmission properties in each of the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1) and the second shell (PS2) of the second phosphor (P2) can be controlled depending on the presence or absence of a B-G mixed color wavelength band between a blue wavelength band and a green wavelength band, and a G-R mixed color wavelength band between a green wavelength band and a red wavelength band, and a degree of color mixing. Through the control, improvement can be made of entire color reproduction capability in the light-emitting device package 410.

The thickness of the first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) may be identical to or different from that of the second shell (PS2) in the second phosphor (P2).

As indicated by the design for the shell thicknesses, the light transmission properties in each of the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1) and the second shell (PS2) of the second phosphor (P2) can be controlled depending on the presence or absence of a B-G mixed color wavelength band between a blue wavelength band and a green wavelength band, and a G-R mixed color wavelength band between a green wavelength band and a red wavelength band, and a degree of color mixing. Through the control, improvement can be made of entire color reproduction capability in the light-emitting device package 410.

In a case where a mixed color wavelength band relating to the second wavelength band of the light emitted from the second core (PC2) of the second phosphor (P2) has greater influence on pure color reproduction, the second shell (PS2) of the second phosphor (P1) may be designed to be thicker than the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1), for example.

When a mixed color wavelength band relating to the second wavelength band of the light emitted from the second core (PC2) of the second phosphor (P2) has greater influence on pure color reproduction, such designing makes it possible to more effectively eliminate the light of the second specific wavelength from the light emitted from the second core (PC2) of the second phosphor (P2), thereby improving pure color reproduction capability in the light-emitting device package 410.

Next, FIGS. 8 and 9 are diagrams respectively showing a light-emitting device package of Type 1-b including one kind of light emitting device (e.g., blue light emitting device) and two kinds of phosphors (green phosphors (P1) and red phosphors (P2)), and a green phosphor (P1) having a core-shell structure and a red phosphor (P2) having a structure according to the present application.

The light-emitting device package 410 of Type 1-b may comprise a first light emitting device (D1) emitting the light of a first main wavelength band within the visible wavelength band.

The light-emitting device package 410 of Type 1-b may comprise a first phosphor (P1) and a second phosphor (P2).

The first phosphor (P1) may have a core-shell structure.

The second phosphor (P2) has a structure according to related art consisting of a core alone, without shells. That is, the second phosphor (P2) does not have a core-shell structure.

The first phosphor (P1) may include a first core (PC1) which is composed of a fluorescent material emitting light of a first wavelength band different from the first main wavelength band of the light emitted from the first light emitting device (D1), and at least one first shell (PS1) which is applied to the surface of the first core (PC1) and which eliminates the light of a first specific wavelength band or attenuates the intensity of the light of a first specific wavelength band in the light of a first wavelength band to emit light of a second main wavelength band within the visible light wavelength band.

For example, the first light emitting device (D1) may be a blue light emitting device and the first main wavelength band may be a blue wavelength band of about 380-500 nm.

The first wavelength band of the light that the first core (PC1) in the first phosphor (P1) emits may include a green wavelength band of about 500-550 nm and a G-R mixed color wavelength band, which is about 550-600 nm and covers a range from about 500-600 nm.

The first specific wavelength band corresponding to the wavelength band of the light that is attenuated or eliminated by the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1) may be, for example, a G-R mixed color wavelength band of about 550-600 nm.

The second main wavelength band corresponding to the wavelength band of the light that is finally emitted from the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1), that is, from the first phosphor (P1) may be a green wavelength band of about 500-550 nm.

Having a core-shell structure, as described above, the first phosphor (P1) can emit pure color light of the second main wavelength band.

In the first phosphor (P1), the first shell (PS1) may be a material having a first light transmission property of attenuating the intensity of the light of a first specific wavelength band, corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed color light, in the first wavelength band of the light emitted from the first core (PC1) to less than a threshold intensity (Sth) and outputting the attenuated light after the incidence of light.

Accordingly, the first phosphor (P1) may emit pure color light of a second main wavelength band by reducing the intensity of the light of the first specific wavelength band corresponding to the mixed color wavelength band.

In the first phosphor (P1), the weight ratio of the first shell (PS1) to the first core (PC1) may be 0.6 or less. In order words, the weight of the shell (PS1) may be set to be 0.6 or less in the first phosphor (P1) when the weight of the first core (PC1) is 1.

In the first phosphor (P1), the weight ratio of the first shell (PS1) to the first core (PC1) may be set in such a manner that the intensity attenuation of the light of a first specific wavelength band, corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed color light, in the first wavelength band of the light emitted from the first core (PC1) is a certain level (K) or greater.

In a first phosphor (P1) having a core-shell structure, as mentioned above, a weight ratio of a first shell (PS1) to a first core (PC1) may be designed so as to emit pure color light without degrading luminance performance.

In the first phosphor (P1), the first shell (PS1) may range in thickness from 1 nm-500 μm.

More particularly, the first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) has a thickness of from 2,000 nm-500,000 nm.

In the first phosphor (P1), the thickness of the first shell (PS1) may be determined such that the intensity attenuation of the light of a first specific wavelength band corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed color light in the first wavelength band of the light emitted from the first core (PC1) is a certain level (K) or greater.

As described above, designing the thickness of the first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) having a core-shell structure, that is, designing the thickness of the first shell (PS1) wrapping the first core (PC1) in consideration of the size of the first core (PC1) allows the emission of pure color light without degrading luminance performance.

The first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) may include at least one rare earth element from the lanthanum group.

As used herein, the term “rare earth elements from the lanthanum group” refers to seventeen elements including the fifteen lanthanides (atomic numbers 57-71) plus scandium (Sc) and yttrium (Y).

The fifteen lanthanides include La (lanthanum), Ce (cerium), Pr (praseodymium), Nd (neodymium), Pm (promethium), Sm (samarium), Eu (europium), Gd (gadolinium), Tb (terbium), Dy (dysprosium), Ho (holmium), Er (erbium), Tm (thulium), Yb (ytterbium), and Lu (lutetium).

As the first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) includes at least one rare earth element from the lanthanum group, as described above, the light transferred from the first core (PC1) of the first phosphor (P1) can be emitted outside the first shell without loss except the first specific wavelength band of the incident light.

In the first phosphor (P1), the first core (PC1) may include, for example, at least one selected from among (Sr,Ba,Mg)2SiO4:Eu, Al5Lu3O12:Ce, (Sr,Ba,Mg)2SiO4:Eu, Y3Al5O12:Ce, La3Si6N11:Ce, (Sr,Ba,Eu)2SiO4:Eu, β-Sialon:Si6-zAlzOzN8-z:Eu, Lu3Al5O12:Ce, (Lu, Gd)3Al5O12:Ce, and Y3Al5O12:Ce (0.01<z<10).

The second core (PC2) in the second phosphor (P2) may emit light of a second wavelength band covering a red wavelength band alone or plus a G-R mixed color wavelength band.

A G-R mixed color wavelength, although existing in the light emitted from the second core (PC2) of the second phosphor (P2), can be reduced or eliminated by the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1).

Of the two phosphors (P1 and P2), as described above, only the first phosphor (P1), which corresponds to a green phosphor, is of a core-shell structure while the second phosphor (P2), which corresponds to a red phosphor, has a structure according to related art including a core alone. If the light-emitting device package 410 improves in entire pure color reproduction capability, it unnecessary to make both phosphors (P1 and P2) have a core-shell structure. In this regard the production cost and process complexity of the phosphor can be reduced.

Next, FIGS. 10 and 11 are diagrams respectively showing a light-emitting device package of Type 1-c including one kind of light emitting device (blue light emitting device) and two kinds of phosphors (red phosphors (P1) and green phosphors (P2)), and a red phosphor (P1) having a core-shell structure and a green phosphor (P2) having a structure according to the present application.

The first phosphor (P1) may have a core-shell structure.

The second phosphor (P2) has a structure according to related art consisting of a core alone, without shells. That is, the second phosphor (P2) does not have a core-shell structure.

The first phosphor (P1) may include a first core (PC1) which is composed of a fluorescent material emitting the light of a first wavelength band different from the first main wavelength band of the light emitted from the first light emitting device (D1), and at least one first shell (PS1) which is applied to the surface of the first core (PC1) and which eliminates the light of a first specific wavelength band or attenuates the intensity of the light of a first specific wavelength band in the light of a first wavelength band to emit the light of a second main wavelength band within the visible light wavelength band.

For example, the first light emitting device (D1) may be a blue light emitting device and the first main wavelength band may be a blue wavelength band of about 380-500 nm.

The first wavelength band of the light emitted by the first core (PC1) in the first phosphor (P1), which is a red phosphor, may include a red wavelength band about 600-700 nm and a G-R mixed color wavelength band, which is about 550-600 nm and covers a range of from about 550-700 nm.

The second main wavelength band corresponding to the wavelength band of the light that is finally emitted from the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1), that is, from the first phosphor (P1) may be a red wavelength band of about 600-700 nm.

Having a core-shell structure, as described above, the first phosphor (P1) can emit pure color light of the second main wavelength band.

In the first phosphor (P1), the first shell (PS1) may be a material having a first light transmission property of attenuating the intensity of the light of a first specific wavelength band, corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed color light, in the first wavelength band of the light emitted from the first core (PC1) to less than a threshold intensity (Sth) and outputting the attenuated light after the incidence of light. Accordingly, the first phosphor (P1) may emit pure color light of a second main wavelength band.

In the first phosphor (P1), the weight ratio of the first shell (PS1) to the first core (PC1) may be 0.6 or less. In the first phosphor (P1), the weight ratio of the first shell (PS1) to the first core (PC1) may be set in such a manner that the intensity attenuation of the light of a first specific wavelength band, corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed color light, in the first wavelength band of the light emitted from the first core (PC1) is a certain level (K) or greater.

In the first phosphor (P1), the first shell (PS1) may range in thickness from 1 nm-500 μm.

More particularly, the first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) has a thickness of from 2,000 nm-500,000 nm.

In the first phosphor (P1), the thickness of the first shell (PS1) may be determined such that the intensity attenuation of the light of a first specific wavelength band corresponding to the wavelength band of the mixed color light in the first wavelength band of the light emitted from the first core (PC1) is a certain level (K) or greater. The first shell (PS1) that is included in the first phosphor (P1) with a core-shell structure has the thickness wrapping the first core (PC1) to allow the emission of pure color light without degrading luminance performance.

The first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) may include at least one rare earth element from the lanthanum group.

As used herein, the term “rare earth elements from the lanthanum group” refers to seventeen elements including the fifteen lanthanides (atomic numbers 57-71) plus scandium (Sc) and yttrium (Y).

The fifteen lanthanides include La (lanthanum), Ce (cerium), Pr (praseodymium), Nd (neodymium), Pm (promethium), Sm (samarium), Eu (europium), Gd (gadolinium), Tb (terbium), Dy (dysprosium), Ho (holmium), Er (erbium), Tm (thulium), Yb (ytterbium), and Lu (lutetium).

As the first shell (PS1) in the first phosphor (P1) includes at least one rare earth element from the lanthanum group, as described above, the light transferred from the first core (PC1) of the first phosphor (P1) can be emitted outside the first shell without loss except the first specific wavelength band of the incident light.

In the first phosphor (P1), the first core (PC1) may include, for example, at least one selected from among (Sr,Ba,Mg)2SiO4:Eu, Al5Lu3O12:Ce, (Sr,Ba,Mg)2SiO4:Eu, Y3Al5O12:Ce, La3Si6N11:Ce, (Sr,Ba,Eu)2SiO4:Eu, β-Sialon:Si6-zAlzOzN8-z:Eu, Lu3Al5O12:Ce, (Lu, Gd)3Al5O12:Ce, and Y3Al5O12:Ce (0.01<z<10).

The second core (PC2) in the second phosphor (P2) may emit light of a second wavelength band covering a green wavelength band alone or plus a G-R (B-G) mixed color wavelength band.

A G-R mixed color wavelength, although existing in the light emitted from the second core (PC2) of the second phosphor (P2), can be reduced or eliminated by the first shell (PS1) of the first phosphor (P1).

Of the two phosphors (P1 and P2), as described above, only the first phosphor (P1), which corresponds to a red phosphor, is of a core-shell structure while the second phosphor (P2), which corresponds to a green phosphor, has a general structure. If the light-emitting device package 410 improves in entire pure color reproduction capability, it is unnecessary to make both phosphors (P1 and P2) have a core-shell structure. In this regard the production cost and process complexity of the phosphor can be reduced.

Next, FIGS. 12 and 13 are diagrams respectively showing a light-emitting device package of Type 2 including two kinds of light emitting devices (blue light emitting device and red light emitting device) and one kind of phosphors (e.g., a green phosphor), and a green phosphor having a core-shell structure.

The first phosphor (P1) may include a first core (PC1) which is composed of a fluorescent material emitting the light of a first wavelength band different from the first main wavelength band of the light emitted from the first light emitting device (D1), and at least one first shell (PS1) which is applied to the surface of the first core (PC1) and which eliminates the light of a first specific wavelength band or attenuate the intensity of the light of a first specific wavelength band in the light of a first wavelength band to emit light of a second main wavelength band within the visible light wavelength band.

For example, the first wavelength band of the light that the first core (PC1) of the first phosphor (P1) emits may include a green wavelength band of about 500-550 nm and a G-R mixed color wavelength band, which is about 550-600 nm and covers a range from about 500-600 nm.

Two colors (e.g., blue and red) out of three colors (e.g., red, green, and blue) may be expressed by pure color light using the two light emitting devices (D1 and D2) while the other color (e.g., green) may be expressed by pure color light using the first phosphor (P1) having a core-shell structure.

Next, FIGS. 14 and 15 are diagrams respectively showing a light-emitting device package of Type 3 including two kinds of light emitting devices (e.g., a blue light emitting device and a green light emitting device) and one kind of phosphor (e.g., a red phosphor), having a core-shell structure.

The light-emitting device package 410 of Type 3 may comprise a first light emitting device (D1) and a second light emitting device (D2) which emit the light of a first main wavelength band (blue wavelength band) and a third main wavelength band (e.g., a green wavelength band), respectively, within the visible light wavelength band.

For example, the first light emitting device (D1) may be a blue light emitting device and the first main wavelength band may be a blue wavelength band of about 380-500 nm. The second light emitting device (D2) may be a green light emitting device, and the third main wavelength band may be a green wavelength band of about 500-550 nm.

The light-emitting device package 410 of Type 3 may include a first phosphor (P1), corresponding to a red phosphor, having a core-shell structure. The first phosphor (P1) may include a first core (PC1) which is composed of a fluorescent material emitting the light of a first wavelength band different from the first main wavelength band of the light emitted from the first light emitting device (D1), and at least one first shell (PS1) which is applied to the surface of the first core (PC1) and which eliminates the light of a first specific wavelength band or attenuates the intensity of the light of a first specific wavelength band in the light of a first wavelength band to emit light of a second main wavelength band within the visible light wavelength band.

For example, the first wavelength band of the light that the first core (PC1) of the first phosphor (P1), which is a red phosphor, emits may include a red wavelength band of about 600-700 nm and a G-R mixed color wavelength band of about 550-600 nm, covering a range of from about 550-700 nm.

Two colors (e.g., blue and green), of red, green, and blue colors, may be expressed as pure color light using the two light emitting devices (D1 and D2) while the other color (e.g., red) may be expressed as pure color light using the first phosphor (P1) having a core-shell structure.

Next, FIG. 16 shows emission spectra of the light-emitting device package 410 in which the gamut of pure colors is improved as the core-shell structure of the green phosphor eliminates a G-R mixed color noise in accordance with some embodiments of the present invention.

In the case of the light emitting device packages 410 of Types 1-a and 1-b (e.g., white light emitting device packages using blue light emitting devices, and red and green phosphors), a comparison is made of emission spectra between a light emitting device package in which the green phosphor has a structure according to related art lacking a shell and a light emitting device package 410 according to some embodiments of the present invention in which the green phosphor has a core-shell structure provided with a shell (refer to FIG. 16).

For a green phosphor having a structure according to related art consisting of a core without a shell, the emission spectrum shows the mixing of green and red colors because the intensity of the light in the green-red (G-R) mixed color wavelength band (NP) is similar to the intensity of the light in the pure green wavelength band and in the pure red wavelength band, without a significant difference therebetween.

As a result of the intensity of the light in the G-R mixed color wavelength band (NP) being similar to the intensity of the light in the pure green wavelength band and in the pure red wavelength band, the light-emitting device package according to related art has a problem in that it cannot reproduce pure colors with a decrease in the emission performance of white light. A display apparatus or illumination apparatus employing the light-emitting device package according to related art has inferior color reproduction capability.

For a green phosphor having a core-shell structure provided with a shell according to the light-emitting device package of the present application, the shell of the green phosphor absorbs the light of a G-R mixed color wavelength band (NP) from the light emitted by the core of the green phosphor to emit pure or substantially pure green color light that is completely or mostly free of the light of the G-R mixed color wavelength band (NP).

As can be seen in the emission spectrum of the green phosphor having a core-shell structure provided with a shell, the intensity of light in a G-R mixed color wavelength band (NP) is greatly lower than light in a pure green wavelength band and in a pure red green wavelength band, so that the mixing of green and red colors is completely or substantially removed.

As a result, the light-emitting device package 410 according to some embodiments of the present invention can reproduce pure colors with the consequent increase of the emission performance of white light. An electronic apparatus 400, such as a display apparatus or illumination apparatus employing the light-emitting device package 410, may greatly improve in color reproduction capability.

Meanwhile, a higher content of the green phosphors having a core-shell structure in the encapsulant 620 allows the light finally emitted by the green phosphors to appear at a higher intensity in the emission spectrum, thereby further increasing the gamut of pure colors.

Next, FIG. 17 shows emission spectra of the light-emitting device package 410 in which the gamut of pure colors is improved as the core-shell structure of the red phosphor eliminates a G-R mixed color noise in accordance with some embodiments of the present invention.

In the case of the light emitting device packages 410 of Types 1-a and 1-c (e.g., white light emitting device packages using blue light emitting devices, and red and green phosphors), a comparison is made of emission spectra between a light emitting device package in which the red phosphor has a structure according to related art lacking a shell and a light emitting device package 410 according to some embodiments of the present invention in which the red phosphor has a core-shell structure provided with a shell (refer to FIG. 17).

For a red phosphor having a structure according to related art consisting of a core without a shell, the emission spectrum shows the mixing of green and red colors because the intensity of the light in the G-R mixed color wavelength band (NP) is similar to those of the light in the pure green wavelength band and in the pure red wavelength band, without a significant difference therebetween.

As a result, the light-emitting device package according to related art cannot reproduce pure colors with a decrease in the emission performance of white light. A display apparatus or illumination apparatus employing the light-emitting device package according to related art may have greatly decreased color reproduction capability.

For a red phosphor having a core-shell structure provided with a shell, in contrast, the shell of the red phosphor absorbs the light of a G-R mixed color wavelength band (NP) from the light emitted by the core of the red phosphor to emit pure or substantially pure red color light that is free of or reduced in the light of a G-R mixed color wavelength band (NP).

As can be seen in the emission spectrum of the red phosphor having a core-shell structure provided with a shell, the intensity of light in the G-R mixed color wavelength band (NP) is greatly lower than light in a pure green wavelength band and in a pure red green wavelength band, so that the mixing of green and red colors is completely or substantially removed.

As a result, the light-emitting device package 410 according to some embodiments of the present invention can reproduce pure colors with the consequent increase of the emission performance of white light. An electronic apparatus 400, such as a display apparatus or illumination apparatus employing the light-emitting device package 410, may have greatly improved color reproduction capability.

Meanwhile, a higher content of the red phosphors having a core-shell structure in the encapsulant 620 allows the light finally emitted by the red phosphors to appear at a higher intensity in the emission spectrum, thereby further increasing the gamut of pure colors.

Next, FIG. 18 shows emission spectra of the light-emitting device package in which the gamut of pure colors is improved as the core-shell structure of the green phosphor eliminates a B-G mixed color noise in accordance with some embodiments of the present invention.

In the case of the light emitting device packages 410 of Types 1-a and 1-b (that is, white light emitting device packages using blue light emitting devices, and red and green phosphors), comparison is made of emission spectra between a light emitting device package in which the green phosphor has a structure according to related art lacking a shell and a light emitting device package 410 according to some embodiments of the present invention in which the green phosphor has a core-shell structure provided with a shell, with reference to FIG. 18.

For a green phosphor having a structure according to related art consisting of a core without a shell, the emission spectrum shows the mixing of blue and green colors because the intensity of the light in the blue-green (B-G) mixed color wavelength band (NP) is similar to those of the light in the pure green wavelength band and in the pure blue wavelength band, without a significant difference therebetween.

As a result, the light-emitting device package according to related art cannot reproduce pure colors with a decrease in the emission performance of white light. A display apparatus or illumination apparatus employing the light-emitting device package according to related art may have greatly decreased color reproduction capability.

For a green phosphor having a core-shell structure provided with a shell, in contrast, the shell of the green phosphor absorbs the light of a B-G mixed color wavelength band (NP) from the light emitted by the core of the green phosphor to emit pure or substantially pure green color light that is free of or reduced in the light of a B-G mixed color wavelength band (NP).

As can be seen in the emission spectrum of the green phosphor having a core-shell structure provided with a shell, the intensity of light in a B-G mixed color wavelength band (NP) is greatly lower than light in a pure green wavelength band and in a pure blue wavelength band, so that the mixing of green and blue colors is completely or substantially removed.

As a result, the light-emitting device package 410 according to some embodiments of the present invention can reproduce pure colors with the consequent increase of the emission performance of white light. An electronic apparatus 400, such as a display apparatus or illumination apparatus employing the light-emitting device package 410, may have greatly improved color reproduction capability.

Meanwhile, a higher content of the green phosphors having a core-shell structure in the encapsulant 620 allows the light finally emitted by the green phosphors to appear at a higher intensity in the emission spectrum, thereby further increasing the gamut of pure colors.

As stated hitherto, the phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure can be applied to the light-emitting device package 410.

The light-emitting device package 410 may be used as a light source in an electronic apparatus, such as a display apparatus and an illumination apparatus.

Further, the phosphor (P) having a core-shell structure may find applications in supplementary color coversion layers for enhancing the color conversion performance of color filters.

Each light-emitting device package 410 may include a first light emitting device emitting the light of a first main wavelength band (e.g., a blue wavelength band) within the visible light wavelength band, and a first phosphor emitting the light of a second main wavelength band different from the first main wavelength band.

The first phosphor may comprise a first core composed of a fluorescent material for emitting the light of a first wavelength band (e.g., a wavelength band including a green wavelength band and a green-red (G-R) mixed color wavelength band, a red wavelength band and a G-R mixed color wavelength band, or a green wavelength band and a B-G mixed color wavelength band) different from the first main wavelength band of the light emitted from the first light emitting device, and at least one first shell, applied to the surface of the first core, for emitting the light of a second main wavelength band (e.g., a green wavelength band or a red wavelength band) within the visible light wavelength band by eliminating the light of a first specific wavelength band (e.g., a green-red (G-R) mixed color wavelength band or a B-G mixed color wavelength band) or by attenuating the intensity of light of a first specific wavelength band from the light of the first wavelength band.

Utilizing as a light source the light emitting device package 410 including a phosphor having a core-shell structure, as stated above, the electronic apparatus 400, such as the display apparatus 1900 or the illumination apparatus 2100, can exhibit greatly improved color reproduction capability.
